studies and material on anti-
Semitism into school cur-
ricula, Mr. Rubinstein said.
The lowest number of anti-
Semitic incidents in the
Soviet Union was reported
in the Baltic states, Trans-
Caucasus and the Ukraine.
One reason, according to
the ADL study, is that the
regional autonomy
movements have strongly
opposed anti-Semitism.
These nationalist
movements are eager to
foster a pro-Western, pro-
democracy image, and they
want to disassociate them-
selves from Moscow's policy,
which is suspected of suppor-
ting or tolerating anti-
Semitic organizations, the
study revealed.
Another explanation cited
was that the conflict with
other ethnic groups over-
shadows the "Jewish prob-
lem" in the Republics.
A total of 467 incidents
were reported by the 500
people polled.
Verbal attacks and the
distribution of anti-Semitic
leaflets accounted for 56.2
percent of the total. A com-
mon motif in the verbal
assaults was "go to your
Israel" accompanied by in-
sults such as "dirty Jews."
These remarks were often
made in food lines, the study
says, along with statements
like "Jews are to blame for
the shortage."
Many of the people inter-
viewed for the study said the
verbal attacks took place
"constantly," and thus they
did not pay much attention.
The harassment of chil-
dren accounted for another
15 percent of the reported
incidents, as did graffiti and
property damage.
Many interviewees said
that the insults to which
their children were sub-
jected at school had a pro-
found impact and were one
of the main reasons they
decided to leave the Soviet
Union.
Direct physical assault
was reported in 5 percent of
the incidents.
"When you consider that-
ADL recorded 1,432 anti-
Semitic incidents for the en-
tire United States in 1989,
the fact that 500 new immi-
grants — but a tiny part of
Soviet Jewry — have de-
scribed 467 cases reflects the
alarming dimensions of anti-
Semitism in the Soviet
Union," pointed out Melvin
Salberg, ADL national
chairman. 0
